Food is a culture unifier
How the pandemic brought me back to life by almost knocking it out of me If you follow me on Instagram, which I've been a whole lot more active on while I wasn't blogging, you'll see that my summer was filled with travel: destination weddings, weekend getaways, a surprise birthday trip, and tons of family… Continue reading Working to Live, Not Living to Work
Hello! So, my last post was in January 2020, full of optimism about blogging more about all my cool NYC adventures. Well. I don't know about you but the last two years have been a roller coaster. The immediate time after that post was dedicated to finding a job, an apartment, and unpacking all of… Continue reading Surviving a Pandemic by Loving Food
Hi all - I know it's been awhile since I posted. If you follow me on Instagram though, you've seen that I've been quiet but not starving. This past year has been a busy whirlwind - that culminated with me quitting my job in DC and moving to NYC! Well, to Jersey City, which is… Continue reading Hiatus and Return!
I've been kind of quiet lately, and it's mostly because last week, I was on vacation. FOR REAL. I was up in Canada, on Lake Nipissing, at a lovely place called Chalkley's Sandy Bay Cottages. My parents have been going up there every summer for two weeks for almost 20 years. I've only been three… Continue reading The Great Outdoors
As luck would have it, shortly after I got this little project off the ground, I had surgery on my left foot, which seriously cut down my food and social adventures. On top of not being very mobile, I also got tired easily; like, would walk to the bathroom and then need to take a… Continue reading I’m back. And in search of food!
Since my foot surgery, my culinary adventures have been clipped, just like my wings. Yesterday was the first day I felt up for venturing out for dinner. Because of the gross and cumbersome crutches I'm on, I played it safe and decided to stay close to home. Fortunately, the area I live in is a… Continue reading BlackFinn: A close, local stand-by
Unfortunately for now, this is the extent of my decadent food adventures. I've had surgery on my foot but as soon as I can hobble on my own, I'll be ravenous for my next post to share with you!
Every foodie loves brunch. I know there's some debate on brunch; how some people absolutely detest it because it's become such a thing and has become synonymous with "basic bitches", and that obnoxious brunch goers have destroyed certain areas. I think this guy's opinion is a little harsh, but I don't disagree with some of… Continue reading Brunch @ Del Ray Café
I work at a very progressive company who really focuses on employee satisfaction and office culture. It's a tech firm, so it's full of smart, funky, and diverse people. One of the many perks that they offer, is Waffle Fridays. The Talent & Culture team sets out in our kitchen (that is also stocked with… Continue reading Waffle Fridays
OK. First post. Expectations are high. I've racked my brain as to what to feature first, because it will set the tone for this entire rinky-dink project I've embarked on. My choice is.... [drum roll, please] Ramen. I'm not talking funky, sketchy, hole-in-the-wall noodle restaurant where no one speaks English ramen, I mean the broke… Continue reading The Journey Begins. With Ramen.
